Compare and contrast the roles of nature versus nurture in human behavior.


assistant
Nature versus nurture is the debate between whether human behavior is determined by inherited genes and traits or if it is shaped by environment and experiences. Nature-focused theorists believe that biological factors such as genetics and hormones are the primary influences on behavior, while nurture-focused theorists believe that behavior is determined by environmental influences such as parental rearing and social interaction. While it is clear that both nature and nurture play a role in determining human behavior, the exact balance and contribution of each is still an area of discussion and debate.
